Reversible Folding of Rhodanese
For the first time completely reversible unfolding was achieved for guanidinium chloride-denatured rhodanese using a systematically defined protocol. These conditions included fl-mercaptoethanol, lauryl maltoside, and sodium thiosulfate. All components were required to get more than the previous best reactivation with lauryl maltoside of 17% (Tandon, S., and Horowitz, P. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 2...
متن کاملMutations of noncatalytic sulfhydryl groups influence the stability, folding, and oxidative susceptibility of rhodanese.
Mutants of rhodanese (EC 2.8.1.1) which substitute serine residues for each of the 4 cysteine residues have been studied to determine the roles of cysteines in the structure and function of the enzyme. The proteins compared in these studies were: the wild-type, C63S, C247S, C254S, C263S, C254S/C263S, and C63S/C254S/C263S. These current studies show that cysteine 247 is the only cysteine require...
متن کاملStable intermediates can be trapped during the reversible refolding of urea-denatured rhodanese.
The enzyme rhodanese (EC 2.8.1.1) could be reversibly refolded from urea in the presence of lauryl maltoside, beta-mercaptoethanol, and sodium thiosulfate. The unfolding/folding transition monitored using intrinsic fluorescence was resolved into two two-state transitions with midpoints at 3.6 and 5.0 M urea. The analysis assumed an intermediate with an emission maximum at 345 nm. Monitoring ani...
متن کاملEstimation of folding probabilities and phi values from molecular dynamics simulations of reversible Peptide folding.
Molecular dynamics simulations with an implicit model of the solvent have allowed to investigate the reversible folding of structured peptides. For a 20-residue antiparallel beta-sheet peptide, the simulation results have revealed multiple folding pathways. Moreover, the conformational heterogeneity of the denatured state has been shown to originate from high enthalpy, high entropy basins with ...
متن کامل-Value analysis by molecular dynamics simulations of reversible folding
In -value analysis, the effects of mutations on the folding kinetics are compared with the corresponding effects on thermodynamic stability to investigate the structure of the protein-folding transition state (TS). Here, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations (totaling 0.65 ms) have been performed for a large set of single-point mutants of a 20-residue three-stranded antiparallel -sheet peptide. B...
